SURF GUEST HOUSE, SURF CAMP, SURF SCHOOL & SURF GUIDE ARRIFANA
Our Surf Camp, Guest House and Surf School are based in Arrifana , a picturesque coastal town located on the most western point of the Algarve.
Arrifana has not been overdeveloped and still retains some of it’s original charm it is called the European «California». The town itself has a good range of local amenitites and also benefits from being located in a bay enclosed by tall cliffs and with local residences harmoniously sloping down almost to the water’s edge, Sagres Beach provides an excellent example of balance between human settlement and the natural environment. The ruins of the old fortress are ideal for some of the best views over the surroundings .With all the necessary infrastructures of a coastal resort, the Beach is a year round favorite for surfers from all over the world. They travel to Arrifana in searching for surf, fun, party and incredible landscapes in a ecological ambience and good vibes.
A short drive out of town if the Parque Natural do Sudoeste Alentejano e Costa Vicentina which is a protected area of natural beauty and well worth a visit.
The Western Algarve benefits from having two surfable coastlines to explore. The west coast (Vicentina) and the south coast offer a variety of point, reef and beach breaks that will suit all levels of surfers from absolute beginners to experienced surfers. We hate to use surfing clichés but this region is now being hailed as the ‘European California‘ by travelling surfers due to its warm weather and huge variety of surf spots. Spring, Summer and Autumn are ideal times to visit for the warm climate and consistent surf. Winter is a good time to visit for bigger uncrowded waves and for more advanced surfers.
We have an surf team onsite to look after you and at night you can chill on the terrace, head into Arrifana town to sample the legendry apres surf nightlife!
